Property Description

With a canal view, this home has a newer ramp, large rooms, and a brand new roof installed last year! It sits on almost a half acre, across 6 lots and has a large open kitchen with bar area and an abundance of cabinets. Home has central AC, and includes a tankless water heater. Home retains most of the original features, and with some repairs would make an excellent vacation rental or weekend getaway! Home is being sold as is, but presents a very unique opportunity for the right buyer. Call to set up a private tour today!
